Chapter 38：Spiritual Sense (2/2)

She took out a storage bag from her side and handed it to Alex. ”Check it,” she said gesturing the bag.

Treasure. That was the only word Alex could think of when he saw what was inside the bag. There were more monsters and cores in here than what he had collected over the course of the 2 days.

And to make things better, all of them were over Bone Tempering realm. He breathed in a little and killed his own awe. There must've been a reason why she showed him her loot, so he asked,” What's the meaning of this, Daoist Luo?”

As if she was waiting for the question, she answered immediately, ”If you can bring me the Spirit Cleansing Lily without wilting the entire flower bed, you can keep that bag.”

Alex's eyes went wide with excitement now. He could hide his awe, but he couldn't hide his excitement. Still, he tried to keep it on the low and asked her, ”Why do you want the lily so bad, Daoist Luo?”

Luo Mei frowned. She was worried if she told him the reason, he would just keep it for himself, or intentionally try to destroy it. That would be too bad for her.

Alex saw her frowning face, and said, ”Don't be mistaken, Daoist Luo. I will get the flower to you. I am asking because I only know the flower by name and appearance, and never learned of its use. So I was hoping you could tell me what the use is.”

Luo Mei didn't immediately believe him, but decided to explain anyway, ”Spirit Cleansing Lily is a precious treasure. If you cultivate overnight with the lily on your body, you will unlock Spiritual Sense.”

Meng Yun was surprised her senior sister actually told him the reason.

”Well, there is no point in hiding it anyway. You would know about it sooner or later, given your knowledge.” Luo Mei continued.

Alex frowned. 'Spiritual Sense?' he had never seen or heard anyone talk about this, inside or outside the game.

”What is Spiritual Sense, Daoist Luo?” he asked.

She looked at him with a surprised face, ”Has no one in Hong Wu Sect told you what it is?” she asked.

Alex laughed a little and shook his head. Luo Mei explained, ”Spiritual Sense is a type of sense, or ability, that you can use to sense your surrounding using your mind. There are many abilities that you can use your spiritual sense for. The best explanation is probably that it is similar to Qi for your brain.”

Alex had never heard of it, but it sounded good.

”So, can you get it then?” Luo Mei was getting agitated.

Alex immediately went to the flower bed and easily plucked the lily and returned. Luo Mei and Meng Yun were shocked to see how simple that looked.

They had been dreading this for the entire day since yesterday night when they had found it. And somehow this man managed to pick it within 5 seconds. Just how good was his ingredient recognizing skills.

Luo Mei looked at the flower bed and realized he had indeed succeeded. 'This man must be a high-ranking disciple in the Hong Wu sect,' she thought to herself.

”Here you go, Daoist Luo. I hope this fulfills what you required of me.”
